• Visual Studio Express Editions Can not publis ASP.NET website

  Oh Dear! I have been battling with this software for some weeks now and although my ISP says ASPs will run OK and has proven this with their own code, I have found that even the "out of the box" solutions and templates provided by Visual Studio Express consistently fail to work! Fustratingly, and after many hours of work they perform fine on my PC, but not when published (even when published in their native format). The erro ...Show All

• Windows Forms Need practical examples of row validation and error handling on DataGridView

  I need a practical example of row validating and error handling for the DataGridView.  My DataGridView is bound and some cells are required.  None of the examples I've seen on MSDN show 1) how to determine which required fields were not supplied and 2) how to give the user an intelligent message informing them of all the rows they need to enter and 3) keep the user on the row so they don't loose their edits. It seems&nbs ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Will there be a new GetOpenFileName API that wraps/calls IFileDialog?

  Similar to the way PrintDlg calls PrintDlgEx behind the scenes in 2000/XP when you don't have a hookproc, is there going to be something similar where you call legacy APIs such as GetOpenFileName and somehow it encapsulates or calls down to IFileDialog (IFileOpenDialog) From what I saw in the PDC video here: http://microsoft.sitestream.com/PDC05/DAT/DAT307.htm#nopreload=1&autostart=1 there is a ton of COM client code that need ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Some graphics questions in VB

  Hi there, I think I accidently posted this in the wrong place before... I'm planning to make a graphics program in Visual Basic. Although I used Visual Basic a long time ago, and have somewhat of a knowledge of programming, I am by no means expert (you might say barely past beginner) and have been more of an enthusiast in the past (my real job is design and animation). Recently, I downloaded VB Express and decided to take the plunge ag ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Is there a way to delete a Work Item Type?

  I've been playing with the customization capabilities for Work Item Types (kudos MS for some very cool extensibility features here).  Is there a tool available (or some type of workaround) that allows you to delete a work item type Thanks.

• Visual Basic Ipod Programming

  I just got myself an IPod for x-mas, and was not happy with the the software bundle included (ITunes). So I started browsing the web for 3'rd party software which could transfer music from IPod->Computer and Computer->IPod.

The only thing I need help with is code to transfer a song to ipod which makes it compatible with the device fo ...Show All
